For those who may be wondering what I'm talking about, Reddit is getting paid to let AI learn from images posted on reddit.

Essentially what this mean is that Reddit is getting paid for your work and not paying you for it.

To help fight this we can use a tool called Glaze which you can find here https://glaze.cs.uchicago.edu/

Naturally in decent price bracket, I work in figma and other design softwares but I need something gentle for my eyes. What are your recommendation guys ?

Hello designers!

I need some help... I have to design an email newsletter and have no idea how. Which program to use? What is your go to?

I have experience as a graphic designer working within Photoshop and Illustrator, logo design, landing pages visuals, social media graphics etc but have never worked on a newsletter before.

Any tips you have would be of great help. I know I can't design this in PS/Ai (it's possible for someone who also has experience in html and coding which I do not). Should I use Figma (I'll have to present it in Figma anyway)?

I have multiple subject lines and previews, links included, some other stuff that I have to research first...

I have a bunch of questions actually, but just any little comment from someone experienced will help.

Thank you in advance to anyone willing to guide me in the right direction!

Hi, i got excepted in both this institutions the WDKA in Rotterdam and design academy Eindhoven. If you study there or have any related information i will be delighted if you shared it with me. To help me make more reasonable choice. I applied for bachelors in both academies. In WDKA i chose transformation design and Dae has only one option, the bachelor of design. Thank you in advance (⁠✿⁠ ⁠♡⁠‿⁠♡⁠)

What are your thoughts and/or experiences with the Asus Zenbook Pro 14 OLED UX6404VV-P4046W , especially related to using several adobe programs all at once? Think of premiere pro, photoshop and Lightroom and illustrator sometimes as well

Long story short. I’m an illustrator and have been looking into productive ways to put my idle designs to use. I’ve always heard taking the licensing route is a good way to generate passive income.

Ideally, I’d personally gear to more interior wallpaper design But either way, how would you start?

Can you just reach out to the company or corps design team? Or is that usually always done in house? Is it an exclusive circle where you would you just have to “hang where so and so hang” to get connected?

Again, I’m interested in this line of work but I’d like honest answers not 5+ old biased articles.

I am an Information Designer and UI/UX and I am writing a blog on color for my work. A colleague has already covered color theory, palettes, and touched on general tips for accessibility and branding. What are new topics that I can cover? Ideally, I'd love to take this opportunity to write from experience and help designers answer questions on color.

As the title says, at the beginning of the project I can tell what looks good and bad to me and I enjoy the process, but after staring at the design for too long I just can't tell anything anymore. What do you guys do to regain "fresh eyes"?

Looking for something to help me do basic design that’s simple for someone new to designing/ digital art

Does anyone here have experience working as a designer for a lobbyist or lobbying / public + government affairs firm? Wondering if this would be a more stable niche for ongoing or more retainer-style work (I’m thinking editorial/print media creation for this sector…things like briefing books, case studies, leave-behinds, flyers, etc) than the little small businesses my boutique agency has targeted up to now.

Would welcome any feedback!

IED Milan vs NUS : which is more much worth it?

Hi, I am a prospective student of IED Milan and I am planning to pursue for a Product design. I am really confused between IED Milan and in NUS Singapore. Both have a pretty good course and an amazing industry exposure. However, despite knowing the details it’s not enough for me to pick on either of universities. I’d like to know about IED villains timetable as a student, how Rigourous the course is, if there are any electives or minors offered, where most of the students stay and also about the industry exposure. I am from India hence I’d like to also know the amount of Indian students in IED for familiarity purposes. If I could get in contact with the current IED student it would be very helpful for me, I hope I find some of u here to make me feel more comfortable joining IED.

As of NUS, since it’s a much smaller major and less competitive major I’d like to know about the facilities that NUS Provides. Is it very rigourous and how is the industry exposure? How are the placement opportunities after graduation.

My family has a kitchen design business and now that years have passed with the implementation of lidar on mobile apps I was wondering if anyone knows the best app to integrate realtime 3D rendering and accurate 2D extraction to send to my drafters.

Not sure if we are close yet but my dream future scenario would be to show up to a new potential clients home and have somewhat of a procedure that can be achieved all in one app:

1. Use my iPad to scan the existing kitchen room

2. Have the program understand what is the old cabinetry and furniture

3. Map out the room in 3D and 2D with measurements of which I can fine tune with my laser

4. Have the app render the kitchen real time with actual footage of the scan for realism

5. Be able to remove the old cabinetry (I can still do this in a primitive render section so as to not bog down the app).

6. Access premade new cabinetry with sizes and textures that I can add overlay into the barebones room (with the app giving options to add my library of pre set cabinet sizes and textures).

7. Create the new kitchen space and render.

8. Extra points would be if there was a VR option that I can connect to my meta quest or maybe vison pro in the future.

Anyone know of any app that strives for most if not all these process? At the very least I would like to extract measurements so I can draft it old school and have something concrete for the client and fabricators.

Hello!

I'm looking for a new laptop arond 2000-2500 euros. Online I found a lot of reviews, but I can't find any reviews focusing on using several Adobe programs at the same time. Most of the days I'm using Illustrator, Photoshop+Lightroom and Premiere Pro, sometimes Indesign as well. Ofcourse not all at once, but I don't want to close the programs all the time.

Do you have any experience with this and do you have any ideas about which laptop of what specifications?

Not sure if this is the right sub, please let me know if not.

I’m struggling to find a colour palette for my brand (I’m a Virtual Assistant, and it’s mainly for my socials).

I keep changing my mind and just don’t know what looks best. Is there anyone that’s good with colour theory and can give some feedback?

ILLUSTRATION BY ALEXANDRA CITRIN-SAFADI/WSJ; ISTOCK

So I am a current Junior in illustration, and I'm stressed about my summer endeavors. I currently have a job at a small company in a very niche illustration field. My end goal is to continue working in this field- I'm even basing my entire senior thesis on said industry. That being said, I understand that going right into freelancing as a recent grad is not viable, even if I already have a job.

Because of that, I have dived into toy and product design, and have been applying to many positions in this field. I've had a couple of interviews: one that I got a rejection for and another I have moved forward in the process for. The issue is, the position would require me to completely relocate within a month. With paying for a position in an expensive city as well as paying for my off-campus apartment near my college, I'd be LOSING money taking this internship. That and travel alone will cost a lot.

On top of all of this, I was given a position at my college over the summer that doesn't pay super well, but I'd be able to pocket all of the money for. The position isn't really related to my field, but I would have a lot of fun doing it. I also would be able to stay in an area that I am familiar with and I'd have time to travel and build up my portfolio beforehand. The only major downside being that it wouldn't help me in finding a job out of school.

I really am interested in the other position, but it feels super out of my comfort zone, and I'm left fearing that I just want to purge the position because I'm overwhelmed. I understand that there isn't a real perfect answer anyone would give me, but I'd love to hear other points of view because I feel like the idea has been rattling in my head without much conclusion. I also recognize that I haven't gotten the other position yet so it really is jumping the gun, but I feel like my interviews went really well.

I just feel lost. Any advice?

UPDATE:

So I decided to drop the internship and take on the college position. There is another factor that I didn’t consider when originally debating between the two and that was the test that the internship gave me.

Turns out they were expecting practically free labor for the CHANCE to get the job. It was such thorough work that they could easily take it and use it on their own after the fact.

Thank you to whoever chimed in- I’m hoping to really buckle down this semester. Fingers crossed :D

Idk why but I’ve spoken about this with other designers, and we all agree that there are some moments that we feel that our knowledge about design isn’t good enough. I’m doing my portfolio rn and I’m kinda feeling this way. Have one of you (designers out there) felt the same??

Anyone here know how to get this soft gradient blur effect? Is it done in 3D or in post? (I can use both just need to know how)
